Dear Mr. & Mrs. Sollenberger, Gina and family,

Please know that our hearts and prayers go out to all of you at this sad time. Unfortunately, my family and I weren't able to make it to the services for Brian. My mother, sisters and I were truly shocked and saddended when Stephen told us the news. As hard as it is to accept, Brian is at peace now. Again our thoughts and prayers are with you,

Sincerely,

Karen Davie, Joan Archinal, Linda Widing, Amy Driscoll, and Stephen Archinal.

Well Brian ...today I saw you one last time. You looked so handsome in your Eagles gear. With all of your favorite things around you. Gina was so sad and heartbroken as was all of your family and friends. You left us too early, you know that. But ... you are at peace now. We are glad of that. Vinny was there, havent seen him in so long. He was really torn up that you are not here with us. We are all going to miss you Bri. But we know that you are up there watching us all. And you will always be here with us, in our hearts. It's been a pleasure being your friend Bri. Getting to know you. Im glad that you came into our lives. Chris sends his love and prayers. He wanted to be there for you, but couldn't make it down. We love ya Bri!! Take care of us all and those Eagles. You have some pull now, use it lol. May you find happiness and rest where you are.

Dear Brian ... I know I haven't seen you in a few years. But, I will miss you so much. You were a good friend. I sit back and remember all the times we hung out on the corner of Torresdale and Marple, on the steps and the corner store. It was you, me, Jennifer, Chris,Joe,Rich and all of the others. We were always up to no good. But boy did we have some fun times. Always making us laugh and cheering us up when we were down. Always looking after Jen and myself. You would tell people, "These are my neices. Leave them alone!" I have known you since I was little but didn't "get to know you" until we hung out when I was about 20 years old. You were a great guy. Always will be. I am so sorry that you had to leave us so soon. I will never forget you!! I hope you are finally resting in peace and will watch over us all. I love ya Bri! God Bless you!
